    A security researcher questions whether standard phishing awareness training is even worth continuing. https://malwaretech.com/2023/09/it-might-be-time-to-rethink-phishing-awareness.html [malwaretech com]

    If you browse with #JavaScript disabled, you'll want to CTRL-U to view source. The article starts at line 377 and ends at line 426 (out of 798).

    It should make one wonder what evil intentions are behind hiding the text unless #JabbaShit is enabled. This is true on any site, but a domain like "Malware Tech" should pay special attention to this idea. It's probably a decent site with no ill intentions, but what they're doing is shady and questionable at best.

    Uh, no thanks. I guess it is a new way to proselytize, but I already get way too many spam calls.

    Cybersecurity attacks on both Caesar's Resorts and MGM Casinos appear to have been social engineering attacks using the organizations' help desks. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/mgm-resorts-hackers-broke-tricking-111102542.html

    One of the things that too-short password expiration policies often cause, by making the help desk's password resetting function a frequently used function.

    One of my training programs is on cybersecurity (it is meant to prepare me for the Security+ exam if I ever finish it).

    It is also time to take $EMPLOYER's annual security awareness training. First screen, they mention some of the very things my course has been discussing. It is suddenly a whole lot less boring.

    As part of today's walking, I passed a mini-park. I decided to sit at one of the picnic tables, but someone had moved it into the sunlight. I started trying to drag it back into the shade.

    A jogger saw me trying to drag the table, stopped and helped me drag it. It was much easier with his help.

    @clacke Interesting. I just recently saw someone mention it. I don't know how often I "ponder", but I have been trying to fill in some holes in my history education, which necessarily means reading about Rome (and Phoenicia, Greece, Persia, China, Mongolia, Kyivan Rus, various Germanic tribes, Aztecs, Incas, Mayans, etc).

    S is working in a small town in the middle of nowhere. She called to tell me about an office in FL that has been calling for #TechTeam staff. Apparently, they got some multi-agency team assigned there and need IT support.

    #Türkiye -- #Turkey

    Türkiye's ruler Erdogan says Türkiye may cancel its 20 year old bid for #EU membership.

    Surely Erdogan knows that his war against the Kurdish people and his stringent political repression isn't going to fly with Brussels.

    France -- A supermarket chain is publicly shaming companies like #Pepsico for "shrinkflation", a practice where products' package sizes are reduced and sold for the same price or even higher. In effect, it is a hidden price increase.

    As always with #Yahoo links, don't expect it to stick around for more than a few weeks or months.
